 When you choose the **Save to CSV** option, AWS SCT creates three CSV files. 

 The first CSV file contains the following information about action items:
+ Category
+ Occurrence – The file name, line number, and position for the item
+ Action item number
+ Subject
+ Group
+ Description
+ Documentation references
+ Recommended action
+ Estimated complexity

 The second CSV file includes the `Action_Items_Summary` suffix in its name and contains the information about the number of occurrences of all action items. 

In the following example, values in the **Learning curve effort** column indicate the amount of effort needed to design an approach to converting each action item. Values in the **Effort to convert an occurrence of the action item** column indicate the effort needed to convert each action item, following the designed approach. The values used to indicate the level of effort needed are based on a weighted scale, ranging from low (least) to high (most).

 The third CSV file includes `Summary` in its name and contains the following summary:
+ Category
+ Number of objects
+ Objects automatically converted
+ Objects with simple actions
+ Objects with medium-complexity actions
+ Objects with complex actions
+ Total lines of code
